DE VUONO has used tho alias George Lee in the local aron. The circumstances which required the use of this alias 18 as follows:DEVUONO, accompanied by the Real Estate Officer from the Cover Branch, under the alias Gregory Williams, went to ISLAMORADA in April 1963 to determine the suitability of 8/11 177 for the AMLILAC Group. It was not anticipated at that time that DEVUONO would be required to use his nase with the owner, Eddie Sweeting. However, arranger:onts for the S/H were rade on the spot and the name George Lee given as the occupant of the house.2. If possible it 13 requested that alias documentation be established in the name of George Lee. This is not an absolute requirement, however, and a registered alias could be assigned.Stanley R.

SECRET27 August 1963MEMORANDUM TO: Chief of Station, JMWAVEVIA : DCOS/OSFROM : Chief, Finance, JMWAVESUBJECT : Tax Problem of Irving G. DEVUONOWhile on TDY at Headquarters, the writer conferred with the Head of the Covert Tax Unit on the subject problem. The writer was informed that the Covert Tax Unit is not able to accept and forward a Covert return for the year 1962 for the subject individual since a Form 1099 had been issued. It was further stated that the Internal Revenue Service, while performing a service last year (tax year 1961) of this nature, would not under any circumstances permit a person and/or persons receiving a Form 1099 or W-2 to file a Covert Return for such reported income. Therefore, it appears all avenues of escape for Irving G. DEVUONO have been closed and he should file an amended return for Tax Year 1962 to include the KUBARK income reported on Form 1099.![signature of Humphrey O. Timanus]Humphrey O.

SECRET30 April 1963MEMORANDUM FOR: Irving C. DEVUONOSUBJECT : Letter of Instruction1. This memorandum is to confirm your appointment as Chief, AMLILAC and to provide you with instructions for the direction of that group.2. The mission is to adapt current assets into a force which can enter the target area by sea or air to conduct reconnaissance, caching, sabotage, raids and/or guerrilla warfare support operations.3. The organizational concept to be followed is that of small teams which can function independently or in combination and entirely under indigenous leadership. All personnel should be fully qualified in basic paramilitary skills and should be physically and mentally prepared to mount operations on short notice. Airborne capabilities will be developed when facilities necessary for training become available.4. The standards for members of the group should be constantly upgraded by culling of members who become marginal or who do not develop as expected. Recruitment of promising new members will be dependent on the needs of the station based on policy directives. Priority should be given to sabotage training to permit the mounting of a sabotage program at the earliest possible moment. Coincidentally, planning and thought should be given to the topics of cover, recruitment, training and establishment of those facilities necessary for a rapid expansion of the group if a full scale operational program should be developed. Also, the force should be identified to the primary exile authority as a non political and independent body which is unilaterally engaged in the overthrow of the existing regime. The tempo of training should be maintained at a level sufficient to assure the continual proficiency of the group in all categories of activity in readiness for the order to mount a full scale program with all teams participating simultaneously. Readiness will not itself be justification for operations.SECRET![image]

SECRET-2-5.  Your staff must be organized to permit close contact with team members so as to assure control over them and at the same time provide full security for the existence of your organization. It must also provide security for the planning of all activities in such a way as to assure the compartmentation of staff and team personnel associated with the different categories of operational activity.6.  The following guide lines are provided for the organization:a.  The size and military nature of the force require that the highest possible standard of security be maintained for all personnel and activities. Specifically, the scope should not be comprehended by team members, and compartmentation by teams should be practiced to the maximum.b.  Should, if possible, be composed of men who have no dependents.7.  The following tasks should be undertaken immediatoly:a.  Continue development of cover for all personnel, their absences, injuries, deaths.b.  Continue the development of concepts to provide for training, during active and inactive periods, transportation to training and staging areas and safehouse utilization.c.  Continue to devise procedures for handling and storage of classified material, arms and equipment.d.

The subject person has submitted the attached memorandum which outlines his objection to paying the self-employment social security tax under the proviso of being self employed. Unfortunately the subject's contract contains the following proviso:Paragraph 8(d): From the salary paid pursuant to this contract these shall be deducted the appropriate rate percentage (presently 6½%) for deposit and eventual crediting to the Civil Service Retirement Fund.

9 April 63TO : COSFROM : IRVING C DEVUONOSUBJECT: INCOME TAXI was sent to this Station in Aug 61 and was given a cover breifing at Headquarters before I left in which I was told that since I was paying into a retirement fund of this organization that they would no longer withold Social Security from my pay.In late 61 I was notified that they wre refunding to me all money withheld for incme tax up to that time and that I would have to file on the inside and to start withholding my own taxes. This was done and I was told by this station to file the covert return with them and to file an overt return on my Army retirement pay. This I did for the year 1961. I was also told by BOB the tax san to file this years return the same way. I made my own tax withholding during 1962 and have the money to cover the taxes, but now I am told that because someone made a mistake and mailed both me and the IRS a form 1099 on my 1963 pay that now I must file an overt return. This now will cause me to pay $225.00 selfemployment tax will make me liable to a 6% penalty for not filing an estimated return quarterly. Since I would not have had to pay these extra taxes if the mistake in mailing the form 1099 had not been made and since I did everything in this matter that the station wanted me to doI do not feel that this extra cost should be by me. I feel this is penalizing me for someone elses mistake. I ask that this matter be reconsidered and that I be informed as to how I should file my 1962 tax return and that I also be told how this yours withholding is to be done.

CADICK and Irving C. DE VUONO as to the latters transfer from the AMTABBY group to the AMLILAC group. In attendance at this meeting were Stanley R. ZAMKA, CADICK, DEVUONO and the writer.2.  ZAMKA initiated the discussion by stating that the 15th would be DEVUONO's last day with CUSOG and that he should take care of any accounts outstanding and complete processing out of CUSOG. DEVUONO was advised he would be contacted by WALTUCK later in the day in reference to his next assignment.3.  CADICK was then advised he should plan a caching opera- tion during the month of April. The exact location, woight and contents of the cache would be passed to him the afternoon of the 15th. CADICK requested that a boat, the Squall King, with which a great deal of training had been accomplished be permitted to go on this caching operation. ZAMKA agreed that security wise the use of an organic AUTABBY boat might be worthwhile. CADICK will include the use of the Squall King in the operational plan which he will submit this coming week.4.
